Answer:

D - Hold less money

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

$75 per case

Explanation:

Required: Selling Price per case

Sales – Variable cost – Fixed cost = Target desired profit

Sales = 800000 case x Selling Price (SP)

Variable cost = (800000 case x $40) + (800000 x SP x 25%)

Putting into equation:

Sales – Variable cost – Fixed cost = Target desired profit

(800000 x SP) – [(800000 x 40) + (800000 x SP x 25%)] - $8000000 = $ 5000000

>800000SP – (32000000 + 200000SP) – 8000000 = 5000000

>800000SP – 32000000 – 200000SP – 8000000 = 5000000

>800000SP – 200000SP = 5000000 + 8000000 + 32000000

>600000SP = 45000000

>SP = 45000000 / 600000

>SP = $ 75

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Option A. real GDP and the price level.

Explanation:

Option “A” is correct because the change in money supply (say increase) will decrease the interest rate and that will result in an increase in investment and more investment will generate more jobs and more money in consumers’ hands. Thus, they will stimulate the spending and aggregate demand will increase. Resulting in the rise in price and rise in real GDP. therefore, option A is right.
